As described

This particular arm is very easy to over torque and then requires rebuilding (complicated!) I would highly recommend the lever version.

Very easy to Over torque

Love these arms!

The functionality of this device is directly associated with the Safety and Well Being of MILLIONS of airline passenger around the world.  It inhances the quality of Jet Engines to the point that without it, damage could be over looked and cause the death of several hundred passengers at once, and This Is A Fact.

I use it to hold a softbox in my product photography studio. It is very easy to adjust and lock it back into position.

Amazing Device!

With so many uses how can I even begin to tell you how it will improve your life in and out of the studio.

Can't live without it!

I'm not using it with a tripod as I'm trying it with a spotting scope for a shooting bench

Bogen - Manfrotto Variable Friction Arm

I bought the Manfrotto Variable Friction (Articulating) Arm to attach to my Vanguard Multi Mount Tripod boom arm so that I can mount flash units on either side of the camera position, to provide multi-directional lighting on macro subjects. I believe it is also durable enough to mount a camera and extend it beyond the reach of the multi mount boom arm (assuming the use of counter-weights).  With a super clamp it can be attached to other objects at the scene for lighting, or reflector support.

Articulating Extension Arm

The Variable Friction Arm allows the positioning of equipment in what might otherwise be inconvenient or impossible places.

By attaching the arm to clamps (sold separately), the photographer is able to place equipment attached to poles, railings, door frames, edges of tables... basically anything you can clamp onto!  Can be used for remote cameras, strobes, etc.
